Inspired by a recipe from New Paradigm Cooking (Sandbach, Terranova and Ware), I chose to forego the cookbook’s recommended 30 minutes simmering time in a stockpot, for a pressure cooker rendition which cut the cooking time to well under 10 minutes total. Now that’s dinner-in-a-flash! Proportions of other ingredients were tweaked in addition. Both cooking methods are mentioned below so you can choose what will work best for you. Grated Granny Smith apples are the surprise and tasty crunch in each spoonful of this nourishing soup. Yield is 7 cups soup, sufficient for 7 or 8 first course soup servings, or 4 to 5 main course soup servings. Substitute pumpkin for butternut squash. Easily converts to vegetarian.
